Sorry - I must have phrased that badly! I meant - how do I save my
COMPLETE favourite list! I need to reformat the computer and don`t want to
lose them - like you, Gill, my favourite list is huge (I`ll need to thin it
out
first, anyway).

And for Firefox you can save your backup in 2 formats - I did both as it
was nice to have an HTML listing I could print out in case I needed to
share a website with somebody.
As someone who had a hard drive crash - I put both the html and the
json files onto a thumb drive so they're someplace other than just the
PC itself.

Thanks everyone for the info. I knew it was absolutely simple, but since I
haven`t needed to do it for about four years I just couldn`t dredge it out
of my poor old brain!
I`m in the process of saving absolutely everything I want to keep on an
external hard drive. The computer`s behaving a bit better today, but for
some reason links won`t work unless I copy and paste them. Grrrr!

There are no reasons (good ones anyway) for Ahole. One can store
most of ones files on places like gmail without slowing your computers
performance down to a snails pace by allowing Ahole to decide what it
will allow you to do and where you can go.
